With more opportunity with the Bucks, the former lottery pick that the Thunder traded several future firsts - in the process passing over Jalen Duren - to acquire in the 2022 NBA Draft 11th overall, Dieng’s 3rd game with Milwaukee was a memorable one.

Bucks have honestly done a good job with these low risk guys that do well for them.

Jericho, KPJ, Cam, Dieng, Rollins We suck at drafting but are the goats of turning around careers

Horst would’ve been too overpowered if he knew how to draft. He does everything else at a high level.

This is why he just trades them away at this point

its a shame because on a good team like Bucks few years ago, these type of moves would have been a game changer

You’re right but past is the past and at least we have signs of life again going forward - just need to move on from Doc now and bring in a contemporary coach

Right? They’ve accidentally built Giannis a good supporting cast.

I think this is what Doc is good at. He is not a good coach if you have championship expectations (which we should with Giannis), but he gets the most out of guys like these. He just has unfathomable confidence in them, even if we all think its undeserved. And sometimes that’s what a guy needs.

That said, please for the love of god can we get a new coach.

I think it’s definitely possible. It wouldn’t be the first time OKC traded away a future MVP candidate.

Probably thought they wouldn’t have minutes to try him out. They have Mousa and Kalk as young up and coming bigs, and Mile Bridges and Grant Williams as their vet small ball 4’s.

Yup, the Bucks were the perfect team for him. We had no one with his athletic profile as a wing, and we desperately needed that.

He outscored every player on the Thunder after the Thunder were like “hey you, you’re too trash to reserve a roster spot for, out you go”

FlipMoBitch | Bucks

He’s an RFA this summer and he wasn’t gonna get extended by OKC. Them trading him somewhere that’ll retain him is a huge favor.

Dirkbananas

It was more like, ‘You will want more money than we can give you bc we like our core atm. We also could use a roster spot for someone who has a better chance at being more useful than you. We love you and know you will kick ass when proving yourself.’
